Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Kühlen des Rauchgases einer Feuerungsanlage in einem Wärmetauscher einer Dampferzeugungsanlage.The invention relates to a method for cooling the flue gas of a furnace in a heat exchanger of a steam generating plant.

Wärmetauscher werden in vielen Anwendungen benötigt. Die übertragene Energie wird dabei von den unterschiedlichen Temperaturen der im Wärmetaucher geführten Medien bestimmt. Hierzu sind unterschiedliche Regelungsmechanismen bekannt, um den Volumenstrom dieser Medien zu variieren. Da die Wärmetauscherfläche in der Regel nicht verändert werden kann, häufig jedoch bestimmte Medientemperaturen am Wärmetauscherausgang erreicht werden sollten, wird die Strömungsgeschwindigkeit im Wärmetauscher variiert.Heat exchangers are needed in many applications. The transmitted energy is determined by the different temperatures of the guided in the heat exchanger media. For this purpose, different control mechanisms are known to vary the flow rate of these media. Since the heat exchanger surface can not be changed as a rule, but often certain media temperatures should be achieved at the heat exchanger outlet, the flow rate in the heat exchanger is varied.

Eine Alternative hierzu liegt darin, den Wärmetauscher im Gleichstrom oder im Gegenstrom zu betreiben. Während im Gleichstrombetrieb am Wärmetauscherausgang die Medientemperaturen stark angenähert werden können, bietet der Gegenstrombetrieb in der Regel einen höheren Wärmeaustausch bei gleicher Wärmetauscherfläche. Die Umschaltung von Gleichstrom auf Gegenstrom scheidet als Regelungsmechanismus aus, da bereits beim Einbau des Wärmetauschers die Verrohrung festgelegt wird und diese während des Betriebs nicht mehr verändert werden kann.An alternative is to operate the heat exchanger in cocurrent or countercurrent. While in DC operation at the heat exchanger output, the media temperatures can be closely approximated, the countercurrent operation usually provides a higher heat exchange at the same heat exchanger surface. The switchover from DC to countercurrent excretes as a control mechanism, since already during installation of the heat exchanger, the piping is set and this can not be changed during operation.

Um die Temperatur des Kühlwassers eines Wärmetauschers zur Vermeidung von Korrosion auf ein Temperaturniveau oberhalb des Schwefelsäuretaupunktes von etwa 120 °C zu heben, schlägt die JP 2000 304231 A eine Umschaltung eines Wärmetauschers von einem Gleichstrom- in einen Gegenstrombetrieb vor. Eine derartige Temperaturanhebung ist bei einem Rauchgas einer Feuerungsanlage in einem Wärmetauscher einer Dampferzeugungsanlage nicht notwendig, da dort die Temperatur des zu erwärmenden Speisewassers bereits bei etwa 130 °C und somit deutlich oberhalb von 120 °C liegt.In order to raise the temperature of the cooling water of a heat exchanger to prevent corrosion to a temperature level above the sulfuric acid dew point of about 120 ° C, proposes the JP 2000 304231 A a changeover of a heat exchanger from a DC to a countercurrent operation before. Such a temperature increase is not necessary in a flue gas of a furnace in a heat exchanger of a steam generating plant, since there the temperature of the feed water to be heated is already at about 130 ° C and thus significantly above 120 ° C.

Die WO 2010/034292 schlägt einen Rohrbündelwärmetauscher vor, bei dem die zu kühlenden Mediumströme verfahrenstechnischer Anlagen durch gerade Heizflächenrohre strömen und dabei die vorhandene Wärme des heißen Mediumsstromes über die Rohrwand an das die Rohre umgebende Kühlmedium abgeben. Derartige Wärmetauscher sind für die Kühlung des Rauchgases von Feuerungsanlagen nicht geeignet.The WO 2010/034292 proposes a shell-and-tube heat exchanger in which the medium flows of process plants to be cooled flow through straight heating surface tubes and thereby release the existing heat of the hot medium flow via the tube wall to the cooling medium surrounding the tubes. Such heat exchangers are not suitable for cooling the flue gas of combustion plants.

Ein spezielles Anwendungsgebiet besonders großer Wärmetauscher liegt in der Kühlung der Gase von Feuerungsanlagen, die als Dampferzeugungsanlage betrieben werden. Bei derartigen Anlagen ist die dem Feuerrost beziehungsweise dem Verbrennungsbereich zugeführte Luft vorzuwärmen und die Abgase werden gekühlt. Dabei werden Wärmetauscher als Verdampfer und Überhitzer eingesetzt, um eine Turbine mit Dampf zu versorgen. Das Speisewasser des Dampferzeugers wird häufig in einem Ecomizer zur weiteren Abkühlung der Rauchgase vorgewärmt.A special field of application of particularly large heat exchangers lies in the cooling of the gases of combustion plants, which are operated as a steam generating plant. In such systems, the air supplied to the grate or the combustion area air is preheated and the exhaust gases are cooled. Heat exchangers are used as evaporators and superheaters to supply a turbine with steam. The feedwater of the steam generator is often preheated in an Ecomizer for further cooling of the flue gases.

Während der Laufzeit der Dampferzeugungsanlage variiert vom Verbrennungsprozess vorgegeben die Abgastemperatur. Außerdem entstehen Ablagerungen im Verdampfer und in den Überhitzern, die die Effektivität der Wärmetauscher beeinträchtigen. Dadurch wird schließlich der Ecomizer mit unterschiedlichen Abgastemperaturen beaufschlagt. Außerdem variiert auch der Wirkungsgrad des Ecomizers entsprechend den durch die Rauchgase hervorgerufenen Ablagerungen an den Wärmetauscherrohren.During the running time of the steam generating plant, the exhaust gas temperature varies depending on the combustion process. In addition, deposits are formed in the evaporator and in the superheaters, which affect the effectiveness of the heat exchanger. As a result, the Ecomizer will eventually be exposed to different exhaust gas temperatures. In addition, the efficiency of the Ecomizers varies according to the deposits caused by the flue gases on the heat exchanger tubes.

Meist ist hinter dem Ecomizer eine Entstickungsanlage für die Rauchgase vorgesehen, deren katalytische Effekte nur bei bestimmten Temperaturen optimal ablaufen. Diese liegen beispielsweise bei einer SCR-Anlage zwischen 250 °C und 270 °C.Usually behind the Ecomizer a denitrification system for the flue gases is provided, the catalytic effects of which run optimally only at certain temperatures. These are, for example, in an SCR plant between 250 ° C and 270 ° C.

Während den ersten Betriebsstunden einer derartigen Anlage haben die Wärmetauscher noch einen hohen Wirkungsgrad, der während der Betriebsdauer jedoch in Folge von Ablagerungen sinkt. Die Laufdauer der Anlage wird insbesondere auch davon bestimmt, dass die Rauchgastemperatur an der Entstickungsanlage in einem bestimmten Temperaturfenster bleiben muss.During the first hours of operation of such a system, the heat exchangers still have a high efficiency, which decreases during the service life, however, as a result of deposits. The running time of the plant is determined in particular by the fact that the flue gas temperature at the denitrification plant must remain within a certain temperature window.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gattungsgemä-Bes Verfahren derart weiterzuentwickeln, dass länger die angestrebten Temperaturfenster eingehalten werden können.The invention is therefore based on the object of developing a generic-Bes method in such a way that the desired temperature window can be maintained longer.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem gattungsgemäßen Verfahrendadurch gelöst, dass der Wärmetauscher über Ventile einstellbar anfangs im Gleichstrom und, wenn die Effektivität des Wärmetauschers durch Ablagerungen sinkt, die Rauchgastemperatur durch Umschaltung des Wärmetauschers von Gleichstrombetrieb auf Gegenstrombetrieb gesenkt wird.This object is achieved in a generic method by the fact that the heat exchanger via valves adjustable initially in DC and, if the effectiveness of the heat exchanger drops by deposits, the flue gas temperature is lowered by switching the heat exchanger from DC operation to countercurrent operation.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.

Das Vorsehen von festen Bypässen an den angegebenen Stellen führt dazu, dass durch die einfache Nachrüstung von zwei Leitungen und entsprechenden Ventilen der Wärmetauscher im Gleichstrom und im Gegenstrom betrieben werden kann.The provision of fixed bypasses at the specified points means that the heat exchanger can be operated in cocurrent and countercurrent by simply retrofitting two lines and corresponding valves.

Am Beispiel eines Ecomizers einer Dampferzeugungsanlage führt dies dazu, dass der Ecomizer beispielsweise anfangs im Gleichstrom betrieben werden kann. Wenn die Effektivität des Wärmetauschers durch Ablagerungen sinkt, steigt die Rauchgastemperatur. Durch Umschaltung des Wärmetauschers von Gleichstrombetrieb auf Gegenstrombetrieb wird dann die Rauchgastemperatur gesenkt. Der Wärmetauscher kann dadurch weiter betrieben werden, da die Rauchgastemperatur weiter im vorgegebenen Temperaturfenster bleibt. Am Beispiel des Ecomizers, der vor eine SCR-Anlage geschaltet ist, kann die Rauchgastemperatur somit durch reines Umschalten von Gleichstrom auf Gegenstrom von 265 Grad Celsius auf 255 Grad Celsius gesenkt werden. Dadurch kann die Laufzeit der Anlage deutlich verlängert werden.Using the example of an ecometer of a steam generating plant, this means that the Ecomizer can initially be operated in DC, for example. When the efficiency of the heat exchanger decreases due to deposits, the flue gas temperature rises. By switching the heat exchanger from DC operation to countercurrent operation, the flue gas temperature is then lowered. The heat exchanger can continue to operate as the flue gas temperature remains within the specified temperature window. Using the example of the Ecomizer, which is connected upstream of an SCR system, the flue gas temperature can thus be reduced from 265 degrees Celsius to 255 degrees Celsius by switching from direct current to countercurrent. This can significantly extend the runtime of the system.

Es ist möglich, in der Zuleitung, der Ableitung und den Bypässen Ventile vorzusehen. Diese Ventile können sinnvoll so gesteuert werden, dass keine Leitungen mit überhitzten Medien beidseitig verschlossen werden können. Dies ist insbesondere bei Darnpferzeugungsanlagen notwendig, um zu hohe Drücke in den Leitungen zu vermeiden.It is possible to provide valves in the supply line, the discharge line and the bypasses. These valves can be meaningfully controlled so that no lines with superheated media can be closed on both sides. This is particularly necessary in Darnpferzeugungsanlagen necessary to avoid excessive pressures in the lines.

Um eine derartige Regelung zu vereinfachen wird vorgeschlagen, dass zwischen Mediumeinlass, erstem Bypass und Zuleitung ein Dreiwegeventil angeordnet ist. Ein Dreiwegeventil sorgt dafür, dass das Medium vom Mediumeinlass auf Bypass und Zuleitung verteilt wird. Dabei kann das Dreiwegeventil so eingestellt werden, dass es immer den gesamten Zustrom am Mediumeinlass durchleitet, ohne dass an dieser Stelle das Leitungssystem im Querschnitt reduziert wird oder sogar geschlossen wird.In order to simplify such a regulation, it is proposed that a three-way valve be arranged between the medium inlet, the first bypass and the feed line. A three-way valve ensures that the medium is distributed from the medium inlet to the bypass and supply line. In this case, the three-way valve can be set so that it always passes through the entire inflow at the medium inlet, without that at this point the line system is reduced in cross section or even closed.

Vorteilhaft ist es, in entsprechender Weise auch zwischen Mediumauslass, zweitem Bypass und Ableitung ein Dreiwegeventil anzuordnen. Auch hier sollte ein Schließen der Rohrleitungen vermieden werden und vorzugsweise sogar während der Schaltung des Ventils der Gesamtvolumenstrom nahezu konstant bleiben.It is advantageous to arrange a three-way valve in a corresponding manner also between medium outlet, second bypass and discharge. Again, a closing of the pipes should be avoided and preferably remain even during the circuit of the valve, the total volume flow almost constant.

Ein vorteilhafter Einsatzbereich der Vorrichtung liegt bei der Behandlung von flüssigen Medien. Dies betrifft vor allem Medien, die über 130 °C heiß sind.An advantageous use of the device is in the treatment of liquid media. This mainly affects media that are over 130 ° C hot.

Dabei können dem Medium gegenüber im Wärmetauscher unterschiedliche Medien geführt werden. Ein breiter Anwendungsbereich erschließt sich bei Wärmetauschern, die auch von einem Gas durchflossen sind.In this case, different media can be passed to the medium in the heat exchanger. A wide range of applications opens up in heat exchangers, which are also traversed by a gas.

Eine Ausführungsvariante sieht hierbei vor, dass das Gas in Richtung vom Wärmetauschereingang zum Wärmetauscherausgang fließt. Je nach Schaltung der Anlage kann das Gas jedoch auch vom Wärmetauscherausgang zum Wärmetauschereingang fließen.One embodiment variant provides that the gas flows in the direction from the heat exchanger inlet to the heat exchanger outlet. Depending on the circuit of the system, however, the gas can also flow from the heat exchanger outlet to the heat exchanger inlet.

Da ein breites Anwendungsgebiet der Vorrichtung im Bereich der Dampferzeuger liegt, wird vorgeschlagen, dass das Gas eine Temperatur oberhalb von 100 °C aufweist.Since a broad field of application of the device is in the field of steam generators, it is proposed that the gas has a temperature above 100 ° C.

Die beschriebene Vorrichtung ist bei einer Dampferzeugungsanlage an verschiedenen Stellen einsetzbar. Der Wärmetauscher kann hierbei ein Überhitzer, ein Ecomizer oder ein Verbrennungsluftvorwärmer sein.The device described can be used in a steam generating plant at various locations. The heat exchanger may be a superheater, an ecomizer or a combustion air preheater.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist der Einsatz bei einer Vorrichtung mit einer Entstickungseinrichtung, da dadurch auf einfache Art und Weise die Rauchgastemperatur an der Entstickungseinrichtung über eine lange Betriebsdauer der Anlage in einem vorgegebenen Temperaturfenster gehalten werden kann.Particularly advantageous is the use in a device with a denitrification, as this can be kept in a simple manner, the flue gas temperature at the denitrification over a long period of operation of the system in a predetermined temperature window.

Da der Wärmetauscher über Ventile einstellbar im Gleichstrom und im Gegenstrom betrieben wird, können Wärmetauscher einer Dampferzeugungsanlage so betrieben werden, dass die benötigten Gase in speziellen Temperaturfenstern gehalten werden und es kann während des Betriebes zwischen Gleich- und Gegenstromfahrweise umgeschaltet werden.Since the heat exchanger is operated via valves adjustable in cocurrent and countercurrent, heat exchangers of a steam generating plant can be operated so that the required gases are kept in special temperature windows and it can be switched during operation between DC and countercurrent mode.

Dieses Verfahren ist auf besonders einfache Art und Weise umsetzbar, wenn die Umstellung über zwei Dreiwegeventile erfolgt. Das vereinfacht die Ventilsteuerung und ermöglicht es, unabhängig von der Steuerung durch den Aufbau der Ventile sicherzustellen, dass in der Dampferzeugungsanlage keine überhitzten Medien in Leitungen geführt werden, die am Leitungseingang und am Leitungsausgang vollständig verschlossen werden können.This method can be implemented in a particularly simple manner if the changeover takes place via two three-way valves. This simplifies valve control and, regardless of control by valve design, ensures that the steam generating system does not contain overheated media in lines that can be completely closed at the line inlet and outlet.

Diese Zuleitung 3 führt von einem Mediumeinlass 4 zum Wärmetauschereingang 5. An der dem Mediumtauschereingang abgewandten Seite ist eine Ableitung 6 vom Wärmetauscherausgang 7 vorgesehen. Ein erster Bypass 8 führt dabei vom Mediumeinlass 4 zur Ableitung 6 und ein zweiter Bypass 9 führt von der Zuleitung 3 zum Mediumauslass 10.In the FIG. 1 The device 1 shown essentially consists of a heat exchanger 2, which is supplied via a feed line 3 with a medium 16. This feed line 3 leads from a medium inlet 4 to the heat exchanger inlet 5. At the side facing away from the medium exchanger inlet side, a discharge line 6 from the heat exchanger outlet 7 is provided. A first bypass 8 leads from the medium inlet 4 to the outlet 6 and a second bypass 9 leads from the supply line 3 to the medium outlet 10.

Ein erstes Bypassventil 11 ist zwischen dem Mediumeinlass und dem ersten Bypass 8 vorgesehen und ein zweites Bypassventil 12 ist zwischen dem zweiten Bypass 9 und dem Mediumauslass 10 vorgesehen. In der Zuleitung 3 ist ein Zuleitungsventil 13 angeordnet und in der Ableitung 6 ist ein Ableitungsventil 14 vorgesehen.A first bypass valve 11 is provided between the medium inlet and the first bypass 8, and a second bypass valve 12 is provided between the second bypass 9 and the medium outlet 10. In the supply line 3, a supply valve 13 is arranged and in the discharge line 6, a discharge valve 14 is provided.

Das zweite Medium ist im vorliegenden Fall ein Gas, dessen Strömung mit den Pfeilen 15 angedeutet ist. Der Wärmetauscher 2 ist somit in dem in Figur 1 gezeigten Beispiel im Gleichstrom betrieben.The second medium in the present case is a gas whose flow is indicated by the arrows 15. The heat exchanger 2 is thus in the in FIG. 1 shown example operated in DC.

Hierzu sind das Zuleitungsventil 13 und das Ableitungsventil 14 geöffnet, so dass das Medium 16 im Gleichstrom zum Gas 15 den Wärmetauscher 2 durchfließt. Der erste Bypass 8 ermöglicht dabei über das erste Bypassventil 11 eine Einstellung der Wärmetauscherleistung und der Temperatur des Mediums am Mediumauslass 10. In dieser Schaltung ist das zweite Bypassventil 12 geschlossen, so dass kein Medium durch den zweiten Bypass 9 fließt.For this purpose, the supply line valve 13 and the discharge valve 14 are opened, so that the medium 16 flows through the heat exchanger 2 in direct current to the gas 15. The first bypass 8 allows via the first bypass valve 11, an adjustment of the heat exchanger performance and the temperature of the medium at the medium outlet 10. In this circuit, the second bypass valve 12 is closed, so that no medium flows through the second bypass 9.

Bei der in Figur 2 gezeigten Schaltung fließt das Medium 16 durch das erste Bypassventil 11 und den ersten Bypass 8 durch den Wärmetauscher 2 zum zweiten Bypassventil 12 und von dort zum Mediumauslass 10. Da das Gas weiterhin in Richtung der Pfeile 15 fließt, wird der Wärmetauscher 2 bei dieser Ventileinstellung im Gegenstrom betrieben. Eine Einstellung der Mediumtemperatur am Mediumauslass 10 ist über die Stellung des Zuleitungsventils 13 möglich, über das eine Bypassströmung vom Mediumeinlass 4 direkt zum Mediumauslass 10 erreicht wird. Der Weg vom Mediumeinlass über die Ableitung 6 zum Mediumauslass 10 ist durch das Ableitungsventil 14 verschlossen.At the in FIG. 2 As shown, the medium 16 flows through the first bypass valve 11 and the first bypass 8 through the heat exchanger 2 to the second bypass valve 12 and from there to the medium outlet 10. Since the gas continues to flow in the direction of the arrows 15, the heat exchanger 2 in this valve setting in Countercurrent operated. An adjustment of the medium temperature at the medium outlet 10 is possible via the position of the supply valve 13, via which a bypass flow from the medium inlet 4 directly to the medium outlet 10 is achieved. The path from the medium inlet via the outlet 6 to the medium outlet 10 is closed by the discharge valve 14.

In den Figuren 3 und 4 sind die in den Figuren 1 und 2 gezeigten Schaltungen in entsprechender Weise jedoch mit jeweils 2 Zweiwegeventilen beschrieben. Dabei wurden das Bypassventil 11 und das Zuleitungsventil 13 zu einem ersten Dreiwegeventil 17 zusammengefasst, während das Bypassventil 12 und das Ableitungsventil 14 zu einem zweiten Dreiwegeventil 18 zusammengefasst sind. Das erste Bypassventil 17 verteilt somit das vom Mediumeinlass 4 kommende Medium 16 auf die Zuleitung 3 und den ersten Bypass 8. Entsprechend führt das zweite Dreiwegeventil 18 das in der Ableitung 6 geführte Medium mit dem vom zweiten Bypass 9 kommenden Medium zum Mediumauslass 10.In the FIGS. 3 and 4 are the ones in the Figures 1 and 2 shown circuits in a corresponding manner, however, each described with 2 two-way valves. In this case, the bypass valve 11 and the supply valve 13 have been combined to form a first three-way valve 17, while the bypass valve 12 and the discharge valve 14 are combined to form a second three-way valve 18. The first bypass valve 17 thus distributes the medium 16 coming from the medium inlet 4 to the supply line 3 and the first bypass 8. Correspondingly, the second three-way valve 18 carries the medium guided in the discharge 6 with the medium coming from the second bypass 9 to the medium outlet 10.

Über das zweite Dreiwegeventil 18 kann der Wärmetauscher 2 somit vom in Figur 3 gezeigten Gleichstrombetrieb in den in Figur 4 gezeigten Gegenstrombetrieb umgeschaltet werden. Während im Gleichstrombetrieb der zweite Bypass 9 über die Einstellung am zweiten Dreiwegeventil 18 geschlossen wird, wird in Gegenstrombetrieb über das zweite Dreiwegeventil 18 die Ableitung 6 geschlossen, während der zweite Bypass 9 geöffnet ist.Via the second three-way valve 18, the heat exchanger 2 can thus from the in FIG. 3 shown DC operation in the in FIG. 4 shown countercurrent operation can be switched. While in DC operation the second bypass 9 is closed via the setting on the second three-way valve 18, the outlet 6 is closed in countercurrent operation via the second three-way valve 18, while the second bypass 9 is opened.

Bei der in Figur 5 gezeigten Dampferzeugungsanlage 20 ist die Feuerungsanlage, bei der mit vorgewärmter Verbrennungsluft Brennstoffe wie insbesondere Abfall verbrannt werden, nicht gezeigt. Die bei der Verbrennung entstehenden Abgase sind durch die Pfeile 21, 22 und 23 angedeutet.At the in FIG. 5 shown steam generating plant 20 is the furnace in which burned with preheated combustion air fuels such as waste in particular, not shown. The exhaust gases produced during combustion are indicated by the arrows 21, 22 and 23.

Diese Rauchgase durchströmen zunächst einen Verdampfer 24 und danach drei Überhitzer 25, 26, 27. Schließlich durchströmen die Rauchgase einen Ecomizer 28, um anschließend einer katalytischen Entstickungsanlage (SCR), die in der Darstellung nicht gezeigt ist, zugeführt zu werden.These flue gases first flow through an evaporator 24 and then three superheaters 25, 26, 27. Finally, the flue gases pass through an ecomizer 28, in order subsequently to be fed to a catalytic denitrification system (SCR), which is not shown in the diagram.

Das als Kühlmedium dienende Wasser 29 wird im Verdampfer 24 verdampft und dampfförmig zunächst über den ersten Überhitzer 25, dann über den dritten Überhitzer 27 und schließlich über den zweiten Überhitzer 26 einer Turbine 30 zugeführt, die einen Generator 31 antreibt. Danach durchfließt es einen Kondensator 32 und wird über eine Pumpe 33 zum Ecomizer 28 gefördert. Dabei ist das erste Dreiwegeventil 34 entsprechend der in Figur 3 gezeigten Schaltung geöffnet und das zweite Dreiwegeventil 35 derart geschaltet, dass der zweite Bypass 36 geschlossen ist.Serving as the cooling medium water 29 is vaporized in the evaporator 24 and steam initially supplied via the first superheater 25, then via the third superheater 27 and finally via the second superheater 26 of a turbine 30 which drives a generator 31. Thereafter, it flows through a capacitor 32 and is conveyed via a pump 33 to the Ecomizer 28. In this case, the first three-way valve 34 corresponding to the in FIG. 3 shown circuit and the second three-way valve 35 connected such that the second bypass 36 is closed.

Das Medium strömt somit vom Mediumeinlass 37 über das erste Dreiwegeventil 34 und die Zuleitung 38 zum Ecomizer 28 und vom Ecomizer 28 über die Ableitung 39 und das zweite Zweiwegeventil 35 weiter zur Kesseltrommel 40. Dabei ist eine Steuerung der Mediumtemperatur über den ersten Bypass 41 zwischen dem ersten Bypassventil 34 und der Ableitung 39 möglich.The medium thus flows from the medium inlet 37 via the first three-way valve 34 and the supply line 38 to the Ecomizer 28 and the Ecomizer 28 via the discharge line 39 and the second two-way valve 35 on to the boiler drum 40. In this case, a control of the medium temperature via the first bypass 41 between the first bypass valve 34 and the drain 39 is possible.

Die Figur 6 zeigt, dass durch eine einfache Umschaltung am zweiten Bypassventil 35 der Ecomizer 28 von dem in Figur 5 gezeigten Gleichstrombetrieb in einen in Figur 6 gezeigten Gegenstrombetrieb umgeschaltet werden kann. Das Wasser 29 fließt bei dieser Schaltung vom Mediumeinlass 37 über das erste Zweiwegeventil 34 und den ersten Bypass 41 zum Ecomizer 28. Von dort gelangt das Wasser über den zweiten Bypass 36 zum zweiten Dreiwegeventil 35 und zurück zur Kesseltrommel 40.The FIG. 6 shows that by a simple switch on the second bypass valve 35 of the Ecomizer 28 of the in FIG. 5 shown DC operation in a in FIG. 6 shown countercurrent operation can be switched. The water 29 flows in this circuit from the medium inlet 37 via the first two-way valve 34 and the first bypass 41 to the Ecomizer 28. From there, the water passes through the second bypass 36 to the second three-way valve 35 and back to the boiler drum 40th

Die Zuleitung 38 übernimmt bei dieser Schaltung die Funktion eines möglichen Bypasses, um durch das erste Dreiwegeventil 34 gesteuert Wasser am Ecomizer 28 vorbei direkt zum ersten Dreiwegeventil 35 und von dort zur Kesseltrommel 40 zu führen. Das als Kühlmedium dienende Wasser 29 wird im Verdampfer 24 verdampft und dampfförmig zunächst über den ersten Überhitzer 25, dann über den zweiten Überhitzer 26 und schließlich über den dritten Überhitzer 27 der Turbine 30 zugeführt, die den Generator 31 antreibt. Dies ermöglicht es auch bei dieser Schaltung ohne zusätzlichen Rohr- oder Ventilaufwand auf einfache Art und Weise eine Regelung der Mediumtemperaturen auf der Gas- und der Wasserseite vorzusehen. Außerdem kann während des Betriebes von Gleichstrom- auf Gegenstromfahrweise und zurück umgeschaltet werden.The supply line 38 assumes in this circuit the function of a possible bypass to controlled by the first three-way valve 34 water on Ecomizer 28 over to lead directly to the first three-way valve 35 and from there to the boiler drum 40. Serving as the cooling medium water 29 is vaporized in the evaporator 24 and steam initially supplied via the first superheater 25, then via the second superheater 26 and finally via the third superheater 27 of the turbine 30, which drives the generator 31. This makes it possible to provide a control of the medium temperatures on the gas and water side in this circuit without additional pipe or valve effort in a simple manner. In addition, can be switched during operation from DC to countercurrent mode and back.
